Mixing device for the packaging and dispensing of a mixture of two products isolated from each other before the dispensing operation
First Claim
1. A device for mixing a first product (11) and a second product (21) and for dispensing a mixture (41) of the two products (11, 21), the device comprising a casing (30) and in the casing a first container (10) containing said first product (11) and a second container (20) containing said second product (21), a push-button (15) and a nozzle (16) on a side of said first container (10) opposite said second container (20), actuation of said push-button (15) permitting said mixture (41) to leave said device through said nozzle (16), the two containers (10, 20) being axially slidable in and relative to the casing and relative to each other from a first position in which said containers are spaced apart a first distance and said push-button and nozzle are retracted within said casing and said containers are out of communication with each other, and a second position in which said push-button and nozzle extend out of said casing and are accessible to a user of the device and said first and second containers are spaced apart a second distance less than said first distance, and means responsive to movement of said containers from said first position to said second position to establish communication between said first and second containers whereby the contents of said second container can enter said first container and mix with the contents of the first container to produce said mixture and said mixture can then be dispensed through said nozzle upon operation of said push-button.

Abstract
Device for mixing at least two products (11, 21) each contained in a container (10, 20), one of the containers (10), or first container, having a volume suitable to receive the product (21) contained in the other container (20), or second container, in order to obtain the mixture (41) of the two products (11, 21), the first container (10) comprising, in its upper part, a push-button (15) equipped with a nozzle (16) and the actuation of which allows the mixture (41) to leave the first container (10) via the nozzle (16); the two containers (10, 20) are carried by a common casing (30) into which they are fitted so as to slide between two positions, a position called far-apart position for which the two containers (10, 20) are not in communication, and a position called close-together position for which the two containers (10, 20) are in communication, the casing (30) preventing, in the far-apart position, any action on the push-button (15) of the first container (10) and allowing action on the said push-button (15) in the close-together position, communication means (17, 18, 22) which can be closed off being provided between the two containers (10, 20).
